To understand which advantages and
disadvantages “ghettoisation” and
decentralizing have on integration requires
several comparative studies on different
places with different compositions of
inhabitants and different local environments.
Minority pupils in places with relatively few
minority pupils will be more exposed to
assimilation because one is isolated against a
relatively bigger majority than minorities in
Oslo for example. A minority pupil in Oslo
will have a possibility to seek out pupils with
the same mother tongue while this can be
difficult or impossible in Dal, since there
may not be others with the same mother
tongue. Instead one seeks out other
minorities in general.
Thomas Hylland Eriksen suggested a
different angle to the phenomenon of
integration when he wrote in a debate in a
Norwegian national newspaper that it is
necessary to continue the discussion on how much
and what the inhabitants in a country need to have
in common for the support for the society’s common
institutions not to crumble. It is far from certain that
immigrants diverge more than other people in the
society. It can even be said that those who really need
to be integrated is Progress party supporters 10 or
militant Christians or newly rich tax cheaters and
not immigrants in general 11 (Eriksen, 2005).
